When is it safe to clear the /media/com_easysocial/tmp folder, it seems to have a LOT of items archived - is there a purge button or something that I haven't seen yet?
Hey there,

Currently we do not have any purge button for delete all the tmp file under this folder directory /media/com_easysocial/tmp

May i know what kind of these file from /media/com_easysocial/tmp currently? Also can you check what is the last creation date?

Perhaps you can attach a few folder or file in your next reply I will take a look.

Hey there,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply,

it will be safe to delete it, these files is actually temporary folder, when you upload a new photo that moment it will temporary store in this tmp folder, once uploaded finish, it will automatically delete it.

I believe it might be hitting some delete permission issue, so these files still exist on tmp folder.
